V ' M 1 Railroad to Society Hill. Mr. EIditor:—Nearly : ag<y I was sent hare by ^ chants of B«met*sville and the farmers of Ma»lbory, shipping to this statiotj. to lartc after their interests. I ioon laalized the importance of the business of your town and county to • the Railroad I was employed by, audit was at my suggestion Mr. Solomons, Supt., made the first great step to secure the entire business of your town, to-wit—a “Free Bridge,” and I urged the officeMMf this road and the peo ple o^Hiarleston to co-operate with those interested to build a railroad from Bennettsville to this point. I was very urgent for years after Maj. Townsend became President, and a survey was made, but your people did not take hold? the matter was allowed to pass, then the R. R. connection you have was made and some money expended by your peop e and you have a rail road, out af ving this one only clearly points out the imperative necessity for having a; other—an outlet South. Manboro County belongs to South Carolina and she should have every facility for fellowship and communica tion with the East of the State. Wha^ a great disadvantage you are under is daily being demon strated. The expense is fresh in the memory of all those who recer tly visited Columbia. I have waited in vain for my old towns-people of Fayetteville to give you an outlet South. They are like most of us—“want it all,” and suppose a Southern extension will do them harm. Now, the time is favorable for a connection with Society Hill. Will the business men of Ben- net sville and the County of Mar oro avail themselves of this opportunity ? I say to them in all soberness, the time has arrived. Let any man who feels an interest in, the connection bestir themselves, agitate the subject, think of it, talk of it. and in a few days some clearer headed man than the writer will ask how much will you Contri bute, and do some more talking. I am interested greatly, but be ing poor can take but little stock. I will put down $200 and pay it. —Marlboro Democrat. J. M. WADDILL.

The location with which this story deals is Northumberland, England, and the time about A. D. 1764. The Northern coast of En gland has always been noted as the scene and source of innumerable Legends, and the most delightful stories of daring, adventure and love. The hero of “OVER THE BORDER” is Ralph Embleton, who leaves home at the age of seventeen, on account of the cruel treatment of his guardian, Matthew Humble. This latter character is so generally mean and unlovely that the reader is continually desireof adminis- A Well Deserved Complimant. The Georgetown Times speaks as follows of an old favorite in Darlington : The gifted chaplain of the regi ment whose exquisite courtesy, tender sympathy, broad charity, intense brotherliness and un wavering fidelity to his sense of duty ofttimes cheered the weary soldier on the march; or lent a softer lustre to the ruddy camp fires’ glow or hovered like an angel’s benediction over the mangled forms of heroes bathed in their life-blood ! To have the unselfish ministrations and com forting help of such a friend and counsellor was a privilege grea ter than words can tell to the soldiers of the Regiment; and it must be, to those who still live, a source of deepest pride and joy to see him moving in our midst, with the charms of a saintly spirit shining clearer and bright er in the beloved face, while the snows of the gliding winters gather silently on his honored head. m: "^ '* '*'* w ♦ TO ST AT WITH THEM AND BE HER ROMEO. that, the ending is peaceful, and lovely, and everything that could be wished.

However, it is not our design to here detail the incidents of this charming tale further than to assure the reader that he (and she) will miss a rare treat in passing by, un read, one of Besant’s very best, as well as latest, efforts.
